Why all of us are not enjoying life of what we are and what we have?
Remember we are in a country where things happen, it’s a very interesting and
exciting country provided you know how to live in it.
Take for example if you go to Wal-Mart in USA ,nothing
happens, where as when you go to big bazaar or vegetable market lots of events
take place with and around you.In a vegetable market you may step on a bulls
tail,get bitten by a stray dog or a monkey may snatch away your vegetables.
In USA no one talks with another person, even husband has to
take permission before talking with his wife. Husband has no right to comment
you sleep so late, “Good afternoon”. You may get a lawyers notice by evening. Whereas
in India everyone talks, give advice and bring the PM or CM or demonetization
topic or about the latest cricket scores in to discussion. Wife wives just
can’t afford to sleep late even on Sundays. Of course after women liberalization
and working woman things have changed in India, husbands have become very
docile like castrated bulls.
There is no load shedding no argument at the counter no argument at
parking lot, no angry arguments with another customer inside the market place
over the blocked corridor because of your trolley. It would be quite hot inside as the
management has switched off the air conditioners to save some electricity. In a
developed country everything moves like a machine. Whereas in India,which ever
or whatever place you go things do happen.
When you come out you find four or five young people sitting
on the bonnet of your car. Just smile and request them to move out or else you
may be shot dead if it’s Delhi or Haryana!
I find most of the people are depressed, negative, full of
advice, very few are interestinged in life. Every one copy and paste others
sayings or quotations. It seems nothing interesting is happening with most of
us and we are worried because of drop in share market or rise in petrol price
or your friend has purchased one Audi where has you are still driving Santo for
last 12 years! No one thinks that the same problem is with everyone but not all
are unhappy or grumbling and increasing their sugar level or blood pressure?
Let’s be happy with what we have and where we are. More depressed you get if
you frequently visit foreign land and stay with your sons or daughters for months.
